The Most Valuable Recipe in this Book. 

DISCOVERED AND FORMULATED BY 

Prof. G. L. AUSTIN, M.D., Boston, Mass. 


UIS CERTAIN CURE EOR 

ooktsxjm: ptiom, 

NERVOUS DISORDERS, DYSPEPSIA, CATARRH, Etc. 


MOTHERS OF BROOKLYN, THIS IS FOR YOU. 


Som'e eighteen months since a well-known person connected 
with a distinguished family in this city was made bedridden 
through the combined diseases of consumption, dyspepsia, and 
nervous prostration. All treatment had proved futile. Death, 
within a very short time, seemed inevitable. While in this critical 
condition his mother chanced to meet an old friend, a druggist in 
the city of New York, who had been afflicted, as she knew, in 
many particulars not unlike that of her son. but who was now a 
well man. He told her Dr. Austin’s PHOSPHATINE had done all 
this for him, and that he knew a number of other extreme cases of 
used-up vitality that it had positively cured. He spoke of it with 
such confidence and earnestness that he at last prevailed upon 
this anxious mother to abandon everything else and begin a vig¬ 
orous use of PHOSPHATINE. Within sixty days from that time 
she had the unspeakable pleasure of seeing her son resume an 
important business position, which he has ever since held without 
intermission. With such indisputable evidence (so forcibly illus¬ 
trated) of THE LIFE-GIVING POWER OF PHOSPHATINE, the 
mother’s gratitude, and those of her friends who have since tried 
it, know no bounds. How often she has been heard to say “ No 
one is long in my presence, if I can find it admissible to introduce 
the subject, but what hears me preach PHOSPHATINE. Oh, that 
I could tell the whole suffering world what I have so often seen 
of the wonderful effects of this remedy! And why is it not ad¬ 
vertised more ? ” She only echoes the sentiments of thousands 
who have tested it (many cases still more remarkable if possible 
than this), and thousands more in the two cities of Brooklyn and 
New York are dying from consumption or dyspepsia, or suffering 
from nervous disorders or some chronic disease, that still have 
it in their power, through this common-sense treatment, to be well 
again. One to six bottles would carry conviction that its com¬ 
ponent parts are exactly what their diseased bodies lack and 
yearn for. Mothers, to you principally belongsjthe responsibility 
to act. Apply at once to your druggist, or send to 
D. W. FAIRCHILD, Agent, 58 Fulton Street, New York, 
For Dr. Austin’s PHOSPHATINE, or Treatise sent free.

ingpan of liot dripping or lard, put in as many as the 
pan will hold without crowding, and fry to a light 
brown; serve hot. In serving lay the head of each fish 
to the tail of the next one. 


Salt Codfish Stewed with Eggs. 

Prepare the fish as for fish-halls. Heat, almost to 
boiling, a pint of milk, and stir with it carefully three 
eggs well beaten, a tablespoonful of butter, a little 
chopped parsley, pepper, and lastly the fish. Boil up 
once, and turn into a deep covered dish; line with 
buttered toast. Eat hot for breakfast or supper. 


Baked Flounders. 

Take a fair sized fish. Take a small onion, chop it 
fine and fry it in a little butter. When the onion is 
done brown, take it off the fire and add a tablespoonful 
more of butter. When it melts, having dredged your 
fish, pass the white side of the fish through the melted 
butter and onion, which you have put in a bakingpan. 
Then set your fish—dark side down—and dredge the 
top with bread crumbs. Dash a little pepper and salt 
on it and bake slowly for thirty-five minutes. Lemon 
juice at the conclusion is good. 

Broiled Oysters. 

Drain the oysters and dry with a napkin ; have a 
griddle hot and well buttered ; season the oysters, lay 
them to griddle, and brown them on both sides; serve 
them on a hot plato, with plenty of butter.

Wash and dry carefully. Lard plentifully with fat 
salt pork, and fry in a well greased fryingpan. Turn

Lamb Stewed with Onions. 

Peel and slice some onions and put in a stewpan, cut 
off the ends of the chops, pound them and lay them in

much water as will cook them, let them stew slowly 
till tender, add a piece of butter rolled in flour to 
thicken the gravy. 

Alamode Beef. 

Take a piece of rump steak, pound It well, and having 
larded it, put it into a stewpan, with some lemon. Put 
the cover on the stewpan, and allow it to cook slowly.

add equal quantities of stock broth and white wine. 
Continue to boil it slowly, until the broth thickens; 
before serving, squeeze the juice of a lemon over it. 

Veal Chops 

Are more juicy and less apt to be tough and solid 
than cutlets. Trim the bone as with mutton chops, 
and fry, dipping in beaten egg and cracker crumbs.

Cottage Pie. 

Mince any kind of cold meat together (beef, mutton, 
veal, pork, or lamb), put it about an inch or an inch 
and a half deep in a pie dish, and cover it with gravy; 
don’t spare salt and pepper; cover it over with mashed 
potatoes, smooth at the top, and cut it across in dia¬ 
monds with a knife; bake till it is crisp and brown at 
the top. A little Worcester sauce maybe considered au 
improvement. 

Meat Roly-Poly. 

Prepare as for highly seasoned hash, make in rolls 
(like a sausage) by binding it with raw eggs, tie each 
roll carefully in a cabbage leaf, and boil one-half to 
three-quarters of an hour in weak stock. 

Beef Steak Pie. 

Cut the steak into pieces an inch long, and stew in 
water enough to cover the meat and bone, until it is 
half done. At the same time j>arboil a dozen potatoes 
in another pot. Put a layer of the beef, with salt and 
pepper and a very little chopped onion, then one of 
sliced potatoes with a little butter scattered upon them, 
and so on, until the dish is full. Pour over all the 
gravy in which the meat is stewed, having first thrown 
away the bone and thickened with browned flour. 
Cover with a thick crust, leaving a slit in the middle. 

Crust for Meat Pies. 

One quart of flour, three tablespoonfuls of lard, two 
and a half cups of milk, one teaspoonful of soda wet

fuls of cream tartar sifted into the dry flour, one tea¬ 
spoonful of salt. Work quickly and lightly, and do 
not get too stiff. 

Mince a la Pompadour. 

Mince any cold meat very fine, with some mashed 
potatoes and a suspicion of onion. Lay in the bottom 
of a pudding dish a very thick layer of boiled macaroni, 
over this spread thickly the miuce, cover with stewed 
tomatoes and over this spread a thick layer of bread

effSC, then in cracker crumbs: seasoned with salt and 
pepper, minced onion, and a little sage. Fry in hot 
lard or drippings twenty or thirty minutes, turning 
often. The gravy of this dish is usually too rich or fat 
to accompany the meat. 

Ham and Chicken Sandwiches. 

Mince equal parts of cold roast chicken and cold 
boiled ham, put in a saucepan with enough gravy to 
make a soft paste. (If you have no gravy, make one 
of hot water, a little milk and a lump of butter.) Sea¬ 
son to taste. Stir until it almost boils. In about four 
or five minutes, take from the fire and spread out to 
cool. Butter nicely cut slices of bread, spread with

(Patented July 4, 1876 ; October 31, 1876.) 

This excellent device recommends itself

its comfort, efficiency, and cleanliness. Cer¬

cloth held in the fingers, as easy as can an 
ordinary tea cup. 

The end of the tube being always im¬

what position the bottle may be placed, as long as a drop of 
liquid remains.

Gravy for Roast Turkey. 

Stew the giblets until very tender and season highly; 
chop fine. When the turkey has been removed, set the 
pan with the drippings from the turkey on the top of 
the stove; while boiling, dredge it thickly with flour, 
and then pour in the giblets and broth in which they 
are boiled; and, if these are not sufficient to make it 
the proper consistency, add more hot water. 

Roulettes of Chicken. 

Cut the meat from the skeletons of roast chickens. 
Put on the bones and stuffing in a quart of water and 
stew down to one pint. Meantime chop the chicken 
meat fine; mix with one-fourth as much fine bread 
crumbs, wet with yesterday’s gravy; add the gizzards 
boiled and minced, and the boiled livers pounded; 
season to taste; bind all with beaten egg ; make into 
balls and dip into a batter made of three-quarters of a 
cup of milk, two eggs, about one scant cup of prepared 
flour, or just enough to make rather thin batter, salted 
to taste. Fry, as you dip each roulette in hot lard or 
dripping, drain off the fat and pile them on a dish. 
Cool, strain and season the gravy from the bones, 
thicken should it need it, boil once, and serve in a boat 
to go around with the roulettes. They make a delicious 
entree.

spoon ; add this with the minced liver to half a'pint of 
smoothly made melted butter; let it just boil, then 
serve. 

Potted Pigeons. 

After cleaning and washing them, put a very little 
water in a kettle and put in the pigeons; let them

One Dose will Slop a Cough. 

One Bottle will Cure a Cold. 

Three Reasons why Ulert's Tar, Boneset, and Honey should lie 
nsei in preference to otter preparation of tte Mai: 

First —Because it is cheaper, the bottles containing 
more than any other 25c. article of the kind in the 
market. 

Second —Because it is pleasant to the taste, and 
children do not object to taking it. 

Third— Because it does not constipate, but regulates 
the bowels, and consequently does not cure a cold at 
the expense of the stomach. Nor does it affect the 
head as opium and its preparations, so often produced 
by Cough Mixtures.

To one quart of grated corn add four eggs and eight 
good sized crackers rolled fine, a large lump of butter 
size of an egg, melted, salt and pepper to taste. Add 
sweet milk until about right consistency to drop from 
spoon. Fry it in butter. 

Boiled Onions.

saucepan with the onions ; add to them half a cupful 
of milk, big lump of butter, and a teaspoonful of flour, 
wet with milk, strained in. Boil up once hard , and

tity of made mustard, a little less if you use plain mus¬ 
tard, then put in, a drop or two at a time, the oil, until 
you have used up about three tablespoonfuls of lino oil 
(if you haven’t this you may use melted butter, but oil 
is much better); when this is thoroughly incorporated 
and smooth, add a tablespoonful and a half of cider 
vinegar. Pour over your potatoes and mix well 
through. Lemon juice instead of vinegar is a great 
improvement. 

Tomato Salad. 

Cut and peel ripe tomatoes and dress without onion 
precisely as for potato salad. Do not put dressing on 
them until you serve them. Then put a spoonful of 
dressing on each saucer of tomatoes. 

Chicken Salad. 

The white meat of a cold boiled chicken; cut up one 
bunch of celery the size of a cent. To make the dress- 
ing, rub smooth the yelks of ten bard boiled eggs, one 
teaspoonful of salt, one tablespoonful of made mustard, 
stir in slowly four tablespoonfuls salad oil, then add 
two tablespoonfuls of vinegar; pour over the chicken 
and celery. 

Oyster Salad. 

One quart of oysters cut, not chopped, into small 
pieces, one bunch of celery cut small, one tablespoonful 
of best oil, one small spoonful of salt, some pepper, and 
made mustard, one-third of cup of cider vinegar, salt- 
spoonfnl of powdered sugar. Drain the liquor from

Lobster Salad. 

Boil a lobster and pick the meat out carefully, then 
put it on ice and dress as follows : Yelks of four raw 
eggs and two hard boiled eggs; rub perfectly smooth, 
then add four tablespoonsfuls of olive oil little by little, 
one teaspoonful of good vinegar, one teaspoonful of salt 
and black pepper; mix all thoroughly and pour over 
the lobster just before serving. Garnish tastefully with 
parsley and rings of the white of hard-boiled eggs. 

Cold Slaw. 

Shred a white cabbage, and j>our over it the following 
dressing: Two beaten eggs, two teaspoonfuls of sugar, 
six tablespoonfuls of vinegar, half a teaspoonful of made 
mustard, same of pepper and salt, half a teaspoonful of 
celery essence, one tablespoonful of butter. Mix well, 
stir over the fire until scalding hot. When cold, pour 
over the cabbage. Toss and stir, and set in a cold place 
till wanted. 

Hot Slaw. 

Cut the cabbage in half, and shave it very finely. Put 
in a stewpan with a piece of butter and salt to taste. 
Pour in enough water to prevent it from sticking to the 
pan. Cover closely and let it stew until tender, stirring 
frequently ; add a little vinegar and serve hot.

SAUCES. 


Cranberry Sauce. 

Put a quart of well washed cranberries on in a sauce¬ 
pan, with a cupful of water. Stew slowly about an 
hour and a half. Stir often. When all soft and broken 
and smooth, take off the fire, sweeten to taste and strain 
through sieve or jelly hag into a wet mold. For sauce 
to eat with turkey or ducks, most people prefer to have 
it tart; in that case, do not sweeten too much. 

Apple Sauce. 

Peel, core and cut in slices some tart apples. Cover 
with water aDd stew until they break in pieces. Beat 
or mash smooth ; add butter and then sugar to taste. 
Many like sliced lemon peel cooked with it. 

Celery Sauce. 

Wash and pare a bunch of celery, cut it into pieces 
and boil it gently until it is tender ; add half a pint of 
cream and a small piece of butter rolled in flour ; now 
boil it gently. This is a good sauce for fowl of all kinds, 
either roasted or boiled. 

Mint Sauce for Lamb. 

Stir into a cupful of good cider vinegar two table¬ 
spoonfuls of minced mint and one tablespoonful of 
sugar; stand about ten or fifteen minutes before using.

During the last ten years we have manufactured

single complaint. When we commenced the pattern 
business it was our determination to have nothing 
but the best; to accomplish this we found it 
necessary to secure the best talent in the country, 
men who could furnish styles from living models, 
and not from mere fancy pictures. We were for¬ 
tunate in being able to secure the services of the 
best talent in the country, men of the highest

the credit belongs for the excellent fitting dresses

MISCELLANEOUS. 


Fish may be scaled much easier by first dipping them 
into boiling water about a minute. 

To Keep Lemons. —Place them in a jar with cold 
water enough to cover them. They will keep fresh 
several days without changing the water. 

A piece of charcoal, changed occasionally, should be 
kept in refrigerators as a purifier. 

Milk, butter and fruit should be kept covered in the 
refrigerator. 

A piece of charcoal put into the brine covering a tub 
of butter will keep the butter sweet. 

If a piece is put into a kettle where onions, cabbage 
or turnips are boiling, it will destroy the odor which 
pervades the house, and will not discolor the water. 

To Remove Ink Stains from Printed Books. —Dis¬ 
solve a small quantity of oxalic acid in a little warm 
water, then slightly wet the stain with it, and it will 
soon disappear, leaving the leaf uninjured. 

Moths in Carpets. —Wet a thick cloth in cold water, 
lay it on the carpet and steam with hot iron. 

Whiting wet with ammonia will cleanse brass from 
stains, and is excellent for polishing faucets and door 
knobs of brass.

THE NOON-DAY STOVE POLISH. 

1st. —It is the Blackest Polish combined with the most 
beautiful gloss in the world. 

Manufactured by E. M. BOYNTON, 80 Beekman St., N. Y. 

Salts of lemon will remove stains from tlie ivory 
handles of knives. 


Flies. —Branches of the elder hush hung in the dining 
room will clear the room of flies. 

Kerosene will remove stains from varnished furniture. 

Cleaning Sponge. 

Immerse the sponge in cold buttermilk; let it soak 
for a few hours, and then wash it out in clean water. 

Cementing Ivory. 

For the purpose of cementing ivory use the clearest 
parchment glue, or any of the transparent cements sold 
by chemists. 

Indelible Ink. 

Indelible ink stains can be removed by first soaking 
in a solution of common salt, and afterwards washing 
with ammonia. 

Stains Caused by Mildew. 

Mildew is removed in several ways from linen. Some 
dip the article in sour buttermilk, lay it in the sun to 
whiten, and then wash in clean water. Others apply 
soap and chalk, or soap and starch, adding half as 
much salt as there is starch, and the juice of a lemon. 

Linen. 

Stains in linen can often be removed by rubbing them 
with soft soap, after which a starch paste is put on, and 
the articles are dried in the sun. This process may 
need to be repeated several times. The soap and starch 
are to be washed off with pure cold water.
